World Cup Fever + Preggers Syndrome + Papa's Birthday!

I am in a real sleepy mode. And I mean EXTREMELY SLEEPY MODE....zzzZzzzz....

If there is a bed next to me, I would have jumped in, close my eyes and dream away. All this is caused by the World Cup fever where England (moi team) played against Slovenia last night and I was happily celebrating their 1-0 win against the latter. Now that they are through to the next round facing Germany, I wonder what will happen next to this team. So far they have been playing terribly, Wayne Rooney not at his best and John Terry acted as if he knows how to manage his team better than his manager (he can't even manage his domestic life, let alone a whole football squad!).

Oh well, enough of WC. My new crib is amost 90% ready and it is time to get the furnitures in. We have exactly 1 month from now before the scheduled moving-in date (yes... we are moving in on July 24th!). Not just the furnitures, we haven't even purchase anything for the baby yet, although Tim and I are kinda excited with the prospect of welcoming our first child together in 4 months time!

Despite my baby bump showing quite visibly now, I have a bloated face too. And my feet...gosh I have to wear 1 size bigger as my sandals are getting tighter as the day goes by. Water retention or is it just pure fat??!! Thank goodness my arms and legs are still quite on the norm side. Mark my words: I am definitely heading straight to the slimming centre right after confinement!

Here's a chronology of my preggers symptom:-

Month 1 - 3 : Vomitting, Nausea, absolutely terrible
Month 4: Hunger
Month 5: Backache, lethargic, old-woman syndrome (the difficulty of getting up once you lie down on the bed), baby kicks

I am in my 21 weeks now. I wonder how Month 6 is like? Let's wait and see....

Oh did I mention my father celebrated his 60th birthday last Saturday? We had an awesome party (not for me that is.. I meant for the oldies haha as we set up a karaoke machine and the old folks partied away at our garden and later on we set up an old style outdoor Cinema atmosphere at our garden where we played Comedy Court on the tv where they laughed till the clock striked midnight!). What a cool way to end my father's birthday in 2010.

Happy Birthday Papa and many more years to come!
